NEW Make Up For Ever Lash Show Instant Drama False Lashes in C-705 | Review + Makeup Look

My blonde lashes are basically non-existent without a good curl and a generous coat (or two) of mascara, so stepping into the wonderful world of false lashes has been rather exciting if you ask me. Now this is not my first encounter with the falsies, but let's just say I can count on my one hand the number of times I've actually worn a pair. My first were these Essence lashes which I hauled way back and got a good few uses out of despite them not being the most comfortable to wear. Then I tried these extravagant paper ones from Omorose Cosmetics, really neat and fun to play with for sure. This brings me to my third ever pair of false lashes, the Make Up For Ever Lash Show Instant Drama in C-705*, part of their new collection of 50 handmade, synthetic fiber lashes. The range includes 27 natural pairs and 23 creative sets - impressive right? Each pair also comes with a latex-free, easy to use lash glue so no need to worry about purchasing one separately.

The Lash Show set in C-705 is part of their creative line and this pair is definitely very intense with its long and fluttery fibers. These lashes feel unbelievable soft, I would even call them 'fluffy' (if that's even a saying when it comes to describing falsies). The lashes are clustered into layered V-shapes, with the fibers being longer at the center of each V. The band is nice and thin making each lash very flexible and easy to manoeuvre. These artistic lashes feel light as a feather, something I really appreciate because let's just say the first pair I ever applied felt like an extra pound was added to each eye (okay I'm exaggerating here, but they were not nearly as light as these ones). The latex free lash glue is scentless, and having experimented with a latex glue in the past this was most definitely appreciated as well. The applicator has a pointed tip resembling a felt tip eyeliner and picks up just enough glue, the lather which goes on white but dries clear. Removing these lashes is painless too, I really have nothing bad to say about them!

As you can see, they add A LOT of length, volume and just overall dramatic impact - not something I would wear daily, but a great option for those special occasions or a fun night out on the town.
